%X The paper is an introduction into the issue of postsecular thought. First, it presents the assumptions, practical manifestations and modifications of the notion of postsecular thought in philosophy (of religion), as well as in sociology and political science. In the second part the paper shows how the notion can be adapted in literature and culture studies, in order to indicate its usefulness in Slavic studies. In the end, it is suggested that the postsecular thought may be particularly productive in researching modern Slavic cultures due to the specific context of their development, i.e. their significant relationship to the West (Western Europe), from which there emerge problems of modernization and the place of religion in the process of adapting the (post)Enlightenment patterns.
